Not a Trainer This Time

Chapter 247 Planting Carrots

Zhi Shu didn’t know how to respond to the old village chief’s words.

 In the end, they are not to blame for all this. The only ones who caused King Lei Guan to be forgotten were the Galar royal family from the previous kingdom.

 So, he simply said nothing, thanked the village chief, and then came to the bookshelf full of books.

The covers of these books are old and the pages are yellowed. They look like they have been aged for some time.

The old village chief explained later: "These ancient books were handed down from my grandfather's grandfather's generation. When I was a child, I read these as stories. Although they are a bit old, judging from their appearance, they can still be passed down to future generations." a long time."

Zhi Shu nodded, reached out and took out a book, and suddenly saw the words "Wangguan Snowfield Adventure Diary" written on the cover.

 “Not this one.”

Zhi Shu put the book aside and continued to browse on the bookshelf. Soon, he found an ancient book called "The King of Plenty".

 Turn over the first page and you will see the legend of King Leiguan written directly on it.

“It is a Pokémon that brings fertility to this land. When it waves its right hand, it can make flowers bloom and the grass become green. When it waves its left hand, it can make the fields fertile and the crops harvest.”

“It makes the huge crown emit cyan light, and it gallops across the land with the horse Pokémon.”

“Its arrival brings new life to the vegetation and brings fertility to the land. We regard it as our king, believe in and worship it.”

“Eh?” Seeing this, Naoki looked surprised. He thought King Lei Guan was born the King of Galar...

From the above content, it seems that King Lei Guan was not a king at the beginning. It was after humans saw his power that they regarded him as a king.

“From this point of view, the so-called King of Plenty should also be the name given to Him by ancient humans.”

Zhi Shu had an idea in his mind, and then continued reading.

“The king has two beloved horses by his side. They are not only the king’s docile mounts, but also inspire the king’s power. When the two become one, a forest can be born overnight.”

“The two horses were originally very rude and would even eat the crops in the village, making humans miserable. However, the king remonstrated with them and made them his subordinates.”

“Some say they are as white as freezing ice, others say they are as dark as midnight ghosts, but no one knows which is correct.”

“These should be the Snowstorm Horse and the Ghost Horse.” Seeing this, Naoki thought in his mind.

The above record is absolutely correct. Two horses, one white and one black, can inspire different powers in King Lei Guan's body.

 Zhishu continued to look down.

“The king tamed the two beloved horses with the reins that he poured his own strength into. The reins were donated by us humans to thank the king for the harvest.”

“Those who are closely connected to the king through the reins are not only the horses, but also humans like us. Don’t forget to donate this rein to the king at the beginning of the year.”

“The reins need to be woven with layers of radiant flowers and horse Pokémon’s manes. This method of making must be passed down to future generations.”

“It’s exactly the same as what I remembered.” Naoki thought to himself.

At present, if you want to help King Lei Guan find the two horses, the reins are also very necessary.

Thinking of this, Naoki turned around and asked the old village chief: "By the way, village chief, do you know how to tie the reins?"

 Old village chief: "Leg reins? Of course I know! My ancestors once followed the method in the book and made a tether reins, but that was a long, long time ago."

As he spoke, the old village chief looked at the tourists in front of him with some surprise: "Do you want to make a bridle?"

Naoki nodded honestly: "Yes."

"Although I don't know what the use of that thing you made is..." the old village chief said: "It's just that no one remembers the traditional production method now. If we go back to the time when my great-grandfather was still alive, I will definitely find someone to help make it. .”

 Naoki nodded thoughtfully.

 But the old village chief looked at him curiously.

Just now, he heard from Ryan that he rescued a tourist who was in distress in the snowy mountains, and the tourist seemed to be looking for King Lei Guan.

 And the tourist who died was obviously the young man in front of him.

 Braving the heavy snow to come to such a desolate place, and even almost freezing to death in the mountains, I still haven't given up looking for King Lei Guan...

 This is the first time for the old village chief to see such a person.

“You are really a strange guy. Is it possible that you really believe in the legend of King Lei Guan and that it is real?”

"Yes, I believe it." Naoki nodded without adding: "Maybe King Lei Guan is watching you somewhere now."

The old village chief shook his head helplessly. It seemed that this tourist had gone crazy.

"That's just a legend. Since you want to find King Lei Guan, go and try it yourself! However, you must pay attention to your own safety no matter what!"

“Don’t throw away your life just to find the non-existent King Lei Guan. That would be a pity.”

 It would be a great pity if such a good young man lost his life here.

Moreover, not only that, when the news of the death in Dongning Village spreads, no tourists will come to the village, and the business of B&Bs, shops and other places in the village will also be affected.

Naoki: "..." He knew it!

 Forget it, Naoki shook his head and continued to read the following content.

 The following content is still related to King Lei Guan’s two horses.

“The radish in the Crown Snow Field has a peculiar way of growing. In the fields with deep snow, it will grow into ice-cold ice radish, and in the field next to the tomb, it will grow into black radish.”

“The legendary King of Plenty’s beloved horses also love eating these radishes. It is said that they can eat up to a hundred radishes at a time and will not stop until their bellies are bulging.”

 “One hundred roots…”

This is too exaggerated. Aren’t you afraid that you will turn into a pig if you eat it? Naoki couldn't help but curse.

But this is really useful information.

 Because these carrots will lure ghost horses and snowstorm horses.

 Zhi Shu began to formulate the next plan in his mind.

 First, he needs to find radish seeds, then plant them in fertile fields, and then ask King Lei Guan to ripen them.

 Then, you can sit back and wait for the two horses to come to your door.

 After getting the information he wanted, Naoki said goodbye to the old village chief, then got up and left here with Gu Ledun.

  But where to get radish seeds is also a problem.

Walking on the snow-covered path in the village, Naoki thought for a moment, then turned back to Lane's house and asked Lane's wife about radishes.

 “Carrot?” The old woman from the countryside was slightly startled at first, as if she did not expect that a tourist would ask about such a thing.

Zhi Shu nodded and said: "Yes, because I heard that the radishes growing in the Crown Snow Field are different from those in other places, so I was a little curious."

"So that's it!" The old woman looked stunned, and then said with a smile: "As for radish seeds, you can buy them from the grocery store in the village. I just have a bag of unplanted seeds left at home. Just give it to you!”

As he spoke, the old woman stood up, took out a bag of seeds from the cupboard and handed it over.

 “Thank you very much!” Naoki’s eyes lit up.

The old woman smiled and said: "These seeds are very common radish seeds, which can also be bought in other cities. Ice radish can only be grown here in Wangguan Snowfield. This is probably because this is a snowfield, right? "

With the radish seeds in hand, Naoki immediately rode Guluton back to King Lei Guan and told him what he had discovered.

After listening, King Lei Guan fell into memories: "Indeed, as long as they find a certain kind of crop, they will fly over, and it takes a lot of effort to get them to calm down. It turns out that the thing is a radish!"

Zhi Shu nodded and said seriously: "Next, just plant this radish, and when it grows out, you can lure the two horse Pokémon to come over!"

  King Lei Guan discovered that his little followers really had his best interests at heart. His heart was moved, and even his majestic voice became gentle:

"If there is fertile soil, it is not difficult to cultivate crops with the power of Gu. As long as there is still a seed, Gu can cultivate it to maturity."

 “If we talk about the isolated snowfield, the land suitable for growing crops...”

Leguan Wang closed his eyes, and his mental power swept across the entire snowfield in an instant.

After a moment, He opened his eyes again and continued: "One is a field located in the cold and clean snow-covered land, and the other is a field beside the tombstones that commemorate the dead... I want to go with you. "

"Of course!" Naoki wanted to continue taking the seeds with him, but he thought about it carefully and said to King Lei Guan: "But I still have one thing to do, so please wait for me here for a while! "

 There was a trace of confusion in King Lei Guan's eyes.

 Then, he saw his little disciple riding the red Pokémon back to the village.

 About ten minutes later, the young believer returned here carrying a hoe.

This is the **** that Naoki borrowed from the Lane family. He was carrying the **** and looked at King Lei Guan in front of him with excitement, and said: "Let's go!"

If he guessed correctly, the two places King Lei Guan mentioned were the Snowy Valley and the Ancient Cemetery.

 In the game, players plant radishes there to lure ghost horses and snowstorm horses.

 It's just that he has just arrived and is very unfamiliar with everything here, so he needs King Lei Guan to help guide him.

Lei Guanwang naturally has no objection.

 Thanks to the help of the young believers, He has now recovered some strength and is no longer as weak as usual.

 Therefore, King Lei Guan looked at the little believer in front of him and nodded gracefully.

 His body immediately emitted a blue halo, and then floated into the air.

 The next second, Naoki saw the surrounding scene flicker, and then, he and Gu Ledun were taken to a strange place by teleportation by King Leiguan.

This is a quiet valley surrounded by snow-capped mountains.

In this valley that looks like a paradise, several fields have been reclaimed by someone unknown.

King Lei Guan stood in front of a field, looking down at the soil below, and then slowly said:

“White radish can grow in this field... Although this is Gu’s memory from long ago and it is now blurry, Gu remembers that it is a vegetable that the ice-type horse often eats.”

Zhi Shu stepped forward with a hoe, patted his chest and said, "Leave the next step to me!"

 As a farmer, no one is better at farming than him!

Seeing the young believer who was full of fighting spirit, King Lei Guan showed a smile on his face, "Then it's up to you to sow the seeds."

 The soil in the ice and snow is a bit hard, and it is not easy to cultivate it.

 But fortunately, Naoki has rich experience to help him deal with this situation. This is not difficult for him, it just takes some time.

 Guluton and King Lei Guan stood aside and watched his work.

Zhi Shu asked while plowing the land: "Do you still remember what happened before?"

"What happened in the past?" King Lei Guan didn't know which thing he was referring to. He recalled it carefully, then shook his head and said: "Because I lost my power, I slept here for a long time. The memories from a long time ago are all gone now." It’s blurry.”

"Losing power?" Naoki's heart sank: "Is it because the people of Galar have forgotten your existence?"

"Gu... Gu didn't know." Lei Guanwang recalled carefully, but couldn't remember anything at all: "Gu only remembered that something terrible happened at that time. Gu consumed a lot of energy, and then he has been sleeping until now..."

 “Huh?” Upon hearing this unfamiliar information, Naoki froze on the spot.

 He recalled the plot carefully and finally discovered something was wrong.

 Because both in the DLC plot of Crown Snow and the King Lei Guan he saw now, he showed a state of near amnesia.

What's more, in the game, King Lei Guan only remembers that he has his favorite horse, but he does not remember that there are two horses.

Thinking of this, Naoki asked tentatively: "Then do you still remember how many horses you love?"

 “Two.” King Lei Guan looked at his little disciple in confusion, somewhat confused as to why he would ask this.

 Zhi Shu was even more confused. Isn't this wrong?

Seeing his expression, King Lei Guan recalled it carefully, and then said: "It's because of the beliefs you brought to Gu that Gu only remembered it. At first, Gu only remembered that Gu had a beloved horse Pokémon. , I don’t know about the others.”

 "That's it..." Naoki nodded thoughtfully.

 It seems that his activities in the Padia region also helped King Lei Guan a lot.

However, what people are concerned about is that what King Lei Guan just said was that something bad happened in the past, which caused him to consume a lot of energy and fall into a deep sleep.

 The bad thing, does it mean Wuji Tai’s awakening?

The land was almost plowed. Zhishu put the radish seeds into the pit and covered it with soil, and asked:

 “Do you know Wuji Tai Na?”

 "Wuji Tai..." Lei Guanwang repeated the name, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.

Zhi Shu asked again: "What about Cang Xiang and Zang Marante?"

Lei Guanwang still doesn’t remember.

Naoki nodded thoughtfully: "That's it..."

 He carefully recalled the plot and background story of Sword and Shield.

If the siblings Cang Xiang and Zangmarante are regarded as the brave men in fantasy stories, Wuji Taina is regarded as the demon king.

So will Lei Guanwang play the role of the king in it?

 The king crowns the brave man, and then the brave man goes to defeat the devil...

 A very traditional Dragon Quest story.

 If this is the case, then the reason why King Lei Guan did not show up when the dark night happened would be explained.

It is very likely that He predicted the awakening of Mojitina in advance, and then used his own power to transfer Pokémon in the forest on a large scale!

  Naoki remembers that the illustration in the Shield’s Lei Guan King described it this way:

“It is said that it moved the vast forest and the creatures inhabiting it to other places in one night, and saved the creatures in the forest from the crisis of falling meteorites with its ability to see through all events in the past and future.”

 Falling meteorites, wishing stars, Wuji Tai from outer space...

Thinking of this, Naoki's expression became more complicated. He raised his head and looked at King Lei Guan in front of him.

After King Leiguan fell into sleep, the Sword and Shield Hero Cang Xiang and Zangmarant also went into seclusion after repelling the dark night.

The Galar royal family took the opportunity to seize their achievements...

  Sensing the little believer’s eyes, King Lei Guan’s eyes were full of confusion and confusion.

“King Lei Guan, is your previous promise still valid?” Naoki asked.

King Lei Guan nodded with dignity: "Of course, how could I break my oath!"

Zhishu smiled slightly and said to him: "Okay, I have thought of what I want."

Lei Guanwang looked at him: "You say."

Zhi Shu said seriously: "After I help you find your beloved horses, you can take them back to the Padia area with me and live on my ranch, right?"
